Bern was 1/2 in a race with NO ONE in it, and now you get Bluegrass Cat and Strong Contender......no way Bern is 2/5, not a chance in hell

I'll give you 3/5 on Henny. Minimum $10k wager.

funny guy Bruce is

You might have already won the Grossman starting wager that game, he might be pulled by then if he plays the way he played last Friday...

We will see, if he doesn't play well this Friday, they are going to boo him out of the starting job

Who's next? Our backup is Joey H. We're in trouble if Culpepper goes down.

He will be a shorter price than he was in the Jim Dandy. Bluegrass Cat and Strong Contender are garbage and no real money will be bet on them. Bernardini might even be bet down to 1-5.

I don't know if I'd call either of them garbage, but BGC doesn't seem like he's as well-known to the general public, and SC hasn't really proven that he can run with either BGC or Bernardini. I think Bernardini will be even-money at the highest.

Beware of betting the farm on Henny Hughes.

If ever there were a candidate for a bounce ... or an injury ... he's the boy.

One start does not a season make.

'dini will be 3/5.. as for Henny, I think he'll be higher, just because of the competitive nature of that race, but probably not much higher, considering the amount of hype he's gotten off that Monmouth race.. 3/2 might not be out of the question if Bling takes cash..

If 'dini is somehow even money, I'll take out a loan to bet that **** on him.

Scavs, I think at least 1 of those 2 will not win, therefore I wouldn't parlay anything on them.
